Installation Guide

Introduction

The RUGGEDCOM RSG907R is a utility-grade, fully managed Ethernet switch featuring an integrated HSR/PRP
RedBox designed for mission-critical, time-sensitive applications (i.e IEC 61850 substations) that require zero
downtime.
• Integrated PRP/HSR Solution
The HSR/PRP RedBox function allows regular Ethernet end devices to participate in HSR or PRP networks.
The device also allows an HSR network to connect to a PRP network over the Coupler port (port 5). QuadBox
functionality is available when used in conjunction with another RUGGEDCOM RSG907R or RUGGEDCOM
RSG909R.
• Swappable SFP Transceivers
Ports designated for Redundant Network Access (RNA) – ports A/B and 5 – can be customized with a wide array
of Small Form-factor Portable (SFP) transceivers offered by Siemens, making the device flexible to the needs of
the redundant network application.
• Fixed Ethernet Ports
In addition to removable SFP transceivers, the device also features four standard 100Base-FX fixed fiber optic
Ethernet ports for Local Area Network (LAN) access.
• Built for Harsh Environments
The device provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic interference, heavy electrical surges, extreme
temperatures and humidity for reliable operation in harsh environments.
The device features IP40 degree protection, does not use internal fans for cooling, and supports a -40 to 85 °C
(-40 to 185 °F) extended operating temperature range.
• Compact Design
The small form factor of the RUGGEDCOM RSG907R allows for installation in space-limited cabinets and on DIN
rails.
• Dual Input Power
The device features dual power inputs to support redundant AC or DC power sources.
• RUGGEDCOM ROS
RUGGEDCOM ROS provides advanced Layer 2 networking functions, and advanced cyber security features.
